BOSTON — A suspicious package alert that shut down downtown Boston Wednesday afternoon was actually part of an elaborate marketing campaign by the Cartoon Network to spark interest in its "Aqua Teen Hunger Force" show.
Absolutely ridiculous. This has been done in 8 or 9 other cities with no problems at all. All of a sudden, Boston freaks out, and Fox acts like Turner has dome something awful. The terror involved is funny, but more funny "uh oh" then funny "ha ha," because if LED cartoon characters are creating bomb scares, we have a serious problem!
